Outside Jinyang City in the cold winter season, the wilderness is covered with snow, and the field of vision is vast and vast at a glance.

There is a knight on the snow who is galloping on his own horse, the knight's upper body is exposed, as if he is not afraid of the cold, and the mount under his crotch is also snow-white, without variegation, and the horse looks abnormal.

This man and his horse galloped through the snow, and the scene looked unbridled. Behind this knight, hundreds of cavalry followed closely, and at the junction of the mountains and forests, there were armor soldiers in military uniforms surrounding this open world, prohibiting the approach of idle people.

The knight on the white horse is Gao Yang, the lord of Qi, who is so happy that he goes out of the city to hunt today. But in the depths of winter, what wild creatures are willing to leave their nests and roam around?

So a safari lasted for most of the hour, and despite the efforts of the soldiers of the forbidden army to search for the beasts in the wilderness, there was still little to be gained.

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor's expression had gradually become unkind, the generals of the forbidden army who accompanied the team hurriedly glanced to the side, and the guards next to them understood and hurriedly walked towards the tent on the edge of the hunting ground.

The tent was furnished with a number of cages, which housed healthy and strong prisoners selected from the prison of Jinyang City. Because His Majesty the Emperor did not have much harvest and did not have enough fun on his safari, he simply took these prisoners as prey. The men were stripped of their robes and then driven to the hunting grounds, where they fled to all sides under the swords and horses of the Praetorian soldiers.

"Well done!"

After Qi Lord Gao Yang saw these sinners running around, his eyes suddenly became excited. He rode his horse and drew his bow and charged at one of the prisoners on the hunting grounds, and when he was still far away, he fired an arrow that struck the prisoner in the back of the heart.

Seeing the defenseless prisoner lying in the snow and dying, the soldiers of the forbidden army around him all cheered and applauded His Majesty the Emperor's superb riding and archery skills, but Qi Lord Gao Yang frowned, only feeling that the experience and picture effect of this long-range shooting were still not good.

So Gao Yang simply threw down his bow and arrows, held an iron rod several feet long, and chased after another prisoner who was still running away on the hunting ground. As the distance between the two sides narrowed, Gao Yang violently whipped the iron rod in his hand towards the head of the prisoner, only to hear a muffled bang, and the skull of the prisoner was smashed open by this rod, and suddenly his brain burst out, and for a while red and white sprinkled all over the snow.

This scene was so cruel that even the soldiers of the forbidden army around them felt a chill when they saw it, and they forgot to cheer for a while. However, Gao Yang became more and more excited, brandishing his blood-stained iron rod and chasing after another fleeing prisoner.

Soon, the dozen or so prisoners who were put into the hunting ground were all hunted and killed by Gao Yang, and he finally rode back with all his heart's content.

At this time, it was already early afternoon, and the wind was getting worse in the wilderness, and some of the attendants who accompanied him saw that the upper body of His Majesty the Emperor was sweating because of the previous hunting, and they were busy glaring at the waiter on the side and said angrily: "Wait for the dog slave to see the cold and wind? How dare you expose Your Majesty naked to the wilderness! If Your Majesty is infected by the cold, you will die and will not be redeemed!"

As he spoke, the attendant pretended to be courteous and stepped forward to clothe His Majesty the Emperor to protect him from the cold.

However, Gao Yang's face changed sharply after hearing this, and he directly swung his staff and smashed the waiter to the ground, and at the same time roared angrily: "The dog thief dares to reprimand the slave of the Son of Heaven! The cold and the frost only hurt the people, how can it destroy the Son of Heaven!"

Gao Yang has always wanted to show his strong and brave side in front of others, and even often makes some unreasonable words and deeds for this reason. The waiter pretended to be courteous but showed the wrong intention, in Gao Yang's eyes, he deserved to die, and waved the iron rod that was already full of blood and smashed it down again and again.

When the flesh and blood of the attendant were blurred and there was a lot of anger, he hated to stop it, and the staff loaded this corpse with the corpses of the criminal prisoners who had been hunted before, as well as other prey, on the cart, and then led a group of forbidden soldiers to drag the cart full of corpses and return to Jinyang Palace in a mighty way.

At this time, outside the Jinyang Palace, there were Changshan Wang Gao Yan from Yecheng, Prime Minister Yang Su, and Ke Zhu Hun Tianhe, who returned from Heyang, and others had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, and when the emperor returned to the palace, he was invited to the palace again.

When he learned that these people had come to Jinyang Palace to ask for a meeting, Gao Yang also felt bad in his heart, and hurriedly joined

Introduced a few people into the palace, his eyes skimmed over Gao Yan and Yang Su, and looked directly at Ke Zhu Hun Tianhe and said in a deep voice: "Is there a variable in the Heluo war?"

Although Gao Yang's thinking and actions have gradually jumped out of absurdity this year, his mind is still extremely smart and agile, and he guesses the key points of personnel before waiting for a few people to do something. But after Zhu Hun Tianhe heard the emperor's question, he also hurriedly kowtowed to the ground, and quickly told the story of the war between Heluo in recent days.

"This dog thief Li Boshan is really hateful! I thought that the black otter was dead, and the Qiang thief could be destroyed, but I didn't expect that there was such a fierce thief as a preparation, repeatedly defeating my division and brigade, and harming my great plan, how could I tolerate it!"

After Gao Yang heard the battle situation in Heluo, he immediately shouted angrily, slammed his clenched fist on the bookcase, and said with hatred in his mouth: "The old man is really embarrassed by the heavy responsibility, the former grabbed the ground with his head and repeatedly made strong words, so I made the soldiers go south, but I repaid me with the loss of the teacher and humiliated the country, hateful, hateful!" Quickly gather the elite of the two capitals and the six divisions and brigades, and go south to Heluo together to capture and kill Li Boshan, the dog thief who deceived me and made a name!"

"Your Majesty, please be calm and don't be impatient, you need to think about things in the long run!"

At this time, Gao Yan and the others saw that the emperor was already furious, and they couldn't hold back the anger in their hearts and wanted to personally conquer Heluo, so they were busy kowtowing to the ground, and repeatedly admonished.

"But Zhu Hun is returning to the military, what are you waiting for here? Could it be that Ye Du is already idle enough to let you wait for the wandering!"

Hearing the advice of several people, Gao Yang's thoughts were scattered from the defeat in the Heluo war, and he stared at the few of them, and reprimanded with a displeased face.

He has been in Jinyang for a long time, Gao Yan and Yang Yu are representatives of the clan and courtiers sitting in Yecheng to deal with state affairs, but several people came to Jinyang without asking for instructions, and seeing that this posture is still with Ke Zhu Hun Tianhe all the way, then it is obvious that they also knew the unfavorable situation of the Heluo war earlier than themselves.

Several people also knew that His Majesty the Emperor's thinking had become more and more erratic and violent recently, and after seeing that his expression was not good, they were all busy and worshiped on the ground.

Cheng Gao Gong returned to the court, and the ministers had to foresee it, and the words and things were not only limited to military affairs, but also involved the drastic changes in the situation of the east and west, and if the matter was rounded, it would show the prestige of our country even more, so the ministers were greedy for merit and progress, and entered Jinyang to prepare for the staff officers."

After Gao Yang heard this, the anger on his face was still not restrained, and he still frowned and looked at Ke Zhu Hun Tianhe and said, "In addition to the defeat of the army, what else needs to be heard?"

"Yes, yes!"

But Zhu Hun Tian nodded again and again, and even told Li Boshan about sending a messenger to Heyang Beicheng to ask for peace.

"Is there such a thing? The mad thieves have repeatedly defeated our division and invaded our territory, and they should be complacent, why did they come up with this plan?"

When Gao Yang heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed deeper, and he turned to look at Zhu Hun Tianhe and said coldly, "Could it be that you and the other generals are frightened, so you use this to deceive the heavens and confuse my heart?"

"Your Ministers dare!"

But Zhu Hun Tianhe shook his head again and again to deny it after hearing this, and then carefully explained the reason: "Li Boshan was already disrespectful to the black otter, and now the black otter is dead, and his hegemony is out of control......

After listening to Ke Zhu Hun Tianhe's analysis, Gao Yang said in a cold voice: "Since this thief is also in this situation, why not take advantage of this army to go south and strangle him, and why listen to his quest for peace, let him go west, and let the tiger go in the mountains and forests? Such a strong talent is rare in the Qiang, and it is appropriate to kill him while his power has not succeeded, and who in the Qiang is worthy of my enemy?"

But after Zhu Hun Tianhe heard this, his forehead couldn't help but be covered with cold sweat, and he secretly sighed in his heart that this emperor couldn't understand the good words? I don't say that people are asking for peace to sound better?

But now the fact is that the entire Heluo area has been captured by its army, and tens of thousands of divisions and brigades under Duan Shao are blocked in Yiyang Jiuqu City. Moreover, he can take advantage of Li Boshan's eagerness to return to the west, and take back Heluo without blood.

However, Zhu Hun Tianhe was not in a hurry to defend himself, the reason why he changed his route to Ye first on the way home

They all went to Changshan Wang and Yang Su and others to do things, because they knew in their hearts that although His Majesty the Emperor was upright and unyielding, he also considered the overall situation, and he attached much more importance to the opinions of important ministers in the court than relatives such as the Queen Mother through kinship.

The emperor is full of ambition to solve the opponent in the process of growth, but the reality may not cooperate. As Gao Yang finished saying this, Yang Su, who was kneeling in the hall, reported again: "Now that the Yedu treasury is gradually empty, and this winter it will have to be prepared for changes, and there is no money and food to support the army to dispatch the southern expedition again, please be cautious in your Majesty."

As soon as Yang Yu's words fell, Tang Yong, who was in charge of the cavalry province later, also spoke: "This winter, the black otters are coming, and the Turks are also responding to the south of the desert. Although the Great Wall of Beishan is blocked, it still needs to be heavily prepared, and it will be difficult for Jinyang and the six states to gather in a short period of time."

Gao Yang heard his subordinates complaining one after another, and his face also changed, and in the end, he couldn't help but shout angrily: "Since the founding of the country, I have not dared to slack off on military and political affairs with the respect of the Son of Heaven, how can the Venerable of the world be diligent and brave with me? Today's mad thief Li Boshan deceived me in Heluo, and I was unable to send troops to kill him, is this my sin, or is it your sin?"
